Emerson and Athalie riding the sled behind the four-wheeler at Grandpa's house. Emerson loved it, Athalie, not so much.


The kids were excited to play with cousin Ethan.
This was at our house after the big snow, we probably had about 8 inches.
Emerson's first big snowman. The snow was to dry in Illinois to make a snowman, so we were sure to make one when it snowed down here.
The kids saw Santa Clause twice this day. Once here, at the downtown celebration, and once in the morning at the drive-through at Hardees. He was all dressed up in his suit, and got out of his van and came and talked to the kids. (We happen to know this particular Santa, and he saw it was our kids.) Athalie was excited until Santa opened the truck door.
The kids and I attended the Seneca Parade. It was quite cold, but we had a good time. I don't think the kids saw anything that night except candy on the ground. I didn't see any of the parade because I was trying to to let the kids get lost among those going after the candy.
